Senior Researcher
Chelsea is passionate about working with young people and changing research approaches to make them more accessible. She joined The Young Foundation in 2021 after working as an education policy and campaigns officer at the Traveller Movement, and a youth research and campaigns officer at Partnership for Young London.
Chelsea is motivated by her desire to make a difference, and this extends beyond work, where she campaigns on issues surrounding Gypsy and Traveller people, and mentors’ university students from under-represented backgrounds.
She can often be found with her head in a book, or exploring old buildings. She has a particular interest in Romanesque and Gothic architecture.
